SELF-PACED LEARNING
Because HAI’s typical student is an
adult learner with family and professional responsibilities, our flexible
learning format works within your own schedule.
You may enroll at any time and progress at your own pace as the rest of
your life plan allows. Although,
learning at HAI is self-paced, we do ask that all courses and programs be
completed within two years of the initial enrollment date.
Most of our courses require about sixty
hours of study time. Some students are
able to complete a course in as little as two weeks, while others may take a
month or more. Our programs then, each
consisting of three to twelve courses, can easily be completed within one to
two years or even less with a regular study routine.
The Colorful Spectrum
of Phytonutrients
From the faint blush on a ripe peach to the vibrant purple of concord grapes, the beautiful colors of fruits and vegetables are imparted by natural chemicals called phytochemicals or phytonutrients. These nutrients not only give plants their color, they also provide flavor, and natural disease resistance. Plants form phytonutrients to protect themselves from disease, and these properties, fortunately, extend to us. The primary benefits of these natural chemicals lie in their abilities as antioxidants to fight premature aging, prevent disease, and aid the body to resist cancer. There are many, many thousands of phytonutrients that work synergistically to support our health. Tomatoes alone are believed to contain an estimated ten thousand different phytonutrients (Balch 48). . . . MORE!
The Healing
Benefits
of Water
Water is a medium that is able to amplify and send energetic wave patterns. The ability of water to copy, memorize, and carry energetic signals and messages was shown in the 1980s by researcher Jacque Benveniste. In an experiment, he exposed ordinary water to the recorded signals of acetylcholine and ovalbumin. The recordings were then introduced to isolated guinea pig hearts. The effects of the digitized water were identical to the effects on the heart produced by the actual substances of acetylcholine and ovalbumin. This experiment and others like it, although controversial, provide insight into the importance of water in cellular communication and the ability of water to duplicate and transmit the energy frequencies of a substance. The ability of water to copy and memorize information is also the theory behind the potentization process that is used in homeopathy (Lloyd 65). . . MORE!
